    Rumours of Primetime showing this but heard nothing official yet. Only a couple of weeks left until the fight now. I hope they've got something sorted.

    Why can't Sky squeeze this into their schedule? It is a rarity for a British fighter to challenge for a world title on home soil these days.

    Babestation I heard was the favourites to get the fight. Although dave are rumoured to have put in a last minute bid to secure this earth shattering fight

    Nodody knows who McDonnell is, nobody would buy it on PPV.

    No chance of it being a fiver with them robbing arseholes involved.

    :lol: I can live in hope!

    Pretty sure Premier did a couple of Hard Knocks shows for £5.99, seems about right for the main event plus Hall on the undercard.

    I know, but I mean why can they not squeeze it in i.e like they do with some of the Klitsko fights in Germany during a UK show.

    Left it too late now no one will buy it on PPV. Shocking a world title fight in Britain involving a Brit isn't getting televised. Thought this was what boxnation was for? Home of boxing my arse.

    Yeah there's no reason they shouldn't be able to do that not like the Burns undercard is stacked Simpson vs Choi should be a good fight as long as it lasts but other than that there's very little.
